Model Railroading > Walthers/Branchline Pullman Green

I'm building several Walthers vintage heavyweight passenger cars and want to paint them to match the Pullman Green on current Walthers and Branchline heavyweights. Floquil Pullman Green isn't a close enough match. Any ideas out there? What about Scalecoat? Thanks in advance.

I would certainly try Scalecoat. But, if that doesn't seem correct, you may have to blend to get the color you want.

I had the same issue. Scalecoat is the best match!

Couldn't find Scalecoat II Pullman Green, so bought Badger Modelflex Pullman Green (16-17), Seaboard Airline Pullman Green (16-185) and New Haven Pullman Green (16-180). I think the New Haven color is closest to my Walthers and Branchline prepainted cars, so will go with it. Thanks to everyone for the advice.
